Zusammenfassung:
Despite major advances in infrastructure and instrumentation,
proteomics-driven translational applications have not yet yielded the
results that the scientific community has envisaged. In this viewpoint,
the perspective of proteomics-based diagnostics in the field of clinical
psychiatry is explored. The challenges that proteomics faces in the
context of translational approaches are outlined and directions toward a
successful clinical implementation are provided. Additional challenges
that psychiatric disorders pose for clinical proteomics are highlighted
and the potential of proteomics-based, blood tests for psychiatric
disorders is being assessed. Proteomics offers a valuable toolkit for
clinical translation that needs to be handled in a pragmatic manner and
with realistic expectations.
